## Description

Learning Python: Powerful Object-Oriented Programming [Lutz, Mark] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Learning Python: Powerful Object-Oriented Programming

Review: To *master* the Python core language, read this book! - Thorough coverage of the Python 3 core language, up to date through Python 3.12 with preview coverage of 3.13. Selected coverage of standard library modules -- can't cover everything in the standard library for this sort of book; the standard library is rather large. Just starting in on this book, but it is clear that if you wish to *master* the Python language then this is the book for you! As the author makes clear, if you truly wish to learn this language, you must devote disciplined time and effort to the task. My only quibble is that I wish there were more frequent and more substantial programming exercises. Currently these show up at the ends of major book parts, though there are test your knowledge quizzes at the end of almost all chapters. However, to be fair -- and why I regard this as a "quibble" -- if you're truly serious about mastering Python you will naturally seek to apply it in your own projects as you work through the book. At least that is my approach.
Review: This is the book you should get if you are serious about learning Python - If you are at a point where you understand some of Python, this book will explain what you know and many many things that you do not know before you read it. It is a HUGE book and about 3 inches thick with writing that is very easy to understand even if you are new to Python. The examples are clear and cover each subject completely. I highly recommend this, and only about 1/2 inch into it and am learning every day. I have purchased several books on this subject, and NON of them have come even close to teaching me what I am learning from this one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ To *master* the Python core language, read this book!
*by R***P on September 10, 2025*

Thorough coverage of the Python 3 core language, up to date through Python 3.12 with preview coverage of 3.13.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book, but shipping package could be improved
*by R***R on January 11, 2026*

I second the enthusiastic review by JeffJ. I am only two weeks into the book, but it's very complete for a beginner, and appears to be thorough for intermediate and advanced users. I am a retired engineer whose last programming experience was with Fortran and BASIC--no object-oriented programming--and I am having no trouble understanding the material. My only complaint is not with the book at all--only with the shipping packaging. Like most Amazon books, it arrived in a thinly-padded envelope. That might be okay for many books. But this is a heavy book--4.25 pounds, and almost inevitably it was dropped along the way, resulting in a bashed corner. Still usable, but I wish Amazon would allow its customers to request that their book be wrapped in a corrugated cardboard sleeve, as books used to be. I would be willing to pay a surcharge for this.
